Scott County Public School Head Start proposes to use Early Head Start Expansion funcls in the
amount of $345,486 per year in funcling and a start up budget of 353,186 to address the needs for
unclerservecl and at-risk infants and toddlers living in this rural community.
Scott County Public School Head Start's servica area includes all of Scott County, located in the
Appalachian Mountains of mral Southwest Virginia. The Head Start Program in Scott County,
Virginia has been in place since 1965. The program's mission is "Guiding low income families
with three and four year old children toward self sufficiency and slrccess in school." Priority
should be given to Scott Cor"rnty because the program has a 50 year history of providing high
quality services to more than 8,000 Head Start children and families.
The proposed Early Head Start Expansion flrnds will target low-income Scott County residents
and expects to enhance lhe Birth-to-Five Continuum by providing intensive and comprehensive
child clevelopment and family services to 20 infants and toddlers in our community, We will
enroll 12 children in the Gate City area. The EHS center will be located in Weber City (two
miles from Gate City) adjacent to the Head Start office and an existing center for three and four
year olds, We will enroll 8 (16 months -36 months) in the Duffield area. This EHS center will be
located in our existing parent buitrding which is adjacent to an existing center that serves 40 three
and four year old children, The centels will operate from B:00 a,m, to4:00 pm, five days per
week for 205 days, These centers are centrally located to offer servìces to working familiås and
families who are attending school at Monntain Empire Community College.

Scott County is a rural county located on the southern edge of the Southwest Virginia
coalfields in rural southwestern Appalachia. It contains 536 square miles of land area and is
bordered by Lee, Wise, and Russell Counties. The County is servecl by a road system consisting
of 116.16 miles of primary roads and 690.16 miles of secondary roads. A succession of hills,
high ridges and narrow limestone valleys characterize most of the collnty. Elevations range from
1,200 feet to 4,000 feet. The Jefferson National Forest comprises a large portion of the county,
and this largely unpopulated area is sparsely populated farming districts, leaving 807o of the
population concentrated in the extreme areas of the county.
There are six small incorporated towns in the county: Duffield, Gate City, 'Weber City,
Nickelsville, Clinchport, and Dungannon. These communities are located near rivers or large
creeks, valleys,'and in natural passageways through mountain chains. About 20Vo ofthe county's
population resides in these incorporated towns.
SCPSCHS completed a Community Assessment Update in July 2016. The following
clescription of this service area contains information gathered from this Community Assessment.
This information provided by the Community Assessment shows the need for financial
assistance to provide Early Head Start Services in Scott County, Virginia.
A critical need for
EHS Services was clearly determined by utilizing our current data base system Chitcl Plus, ancl
the Family Resource Specialists to identify and interview families
with expectant mothers
and
/or siblings in the EHS age range from 0-36 months. The Head Start generated data revealed that
20
curently enrolled families with either
an income expectant mother or a sibling of Early Head
Start age was in need of additional services.
Partnering with Scott County Health Department and the Scott County Department of
Social Services, we found that 86Vo of our current client base is demanding additional assistance.
õ
J
That assistance not only addlesses the chilcl growth and development needs of their children,
will
also meet their demand and need
br-rt
for child care to keep them employed and/or in school and
mitigate the region-wide high poverty level. Or-rr d¿rta resource, Scott Cor"rnty Health Department,
r.rsing
their WIC guidelines, determined a target demancl for services basecl on their current'WIC
enrollment numbers, These numbers include more than 62 expectant mothers; more than 82
clients with children in the 0-12 month stage; and204 children age two to five, for a staggering
total estimated number of eligible EHS/HS children to 348. Scott Cor"rnty DSS clata for FY June
2015-May 2016 shows that 116 families with 240 children and 38 within the 0-3 range receive
TANF. Thirty families (64 children/ with
10
within the 0-3 range) participated in the View
program. Nine children from birth to 3 years are in Foster Care.
SCPSEHSP projects that approximately 127 infant and toddlers are eligible for Head
Start services, Due to lack of ftrnding, only two children are receiving child care subsidy
Scott County is a small, rural Southwest VA, county, with a population of 22,18r
Poverty is high, with a median householcl of $38,355 compared with the state average of $63,907
the state average while the unemployment rate is IVo higher, Scott County Schools has a local
composite index of .193, making it the 3'd poorest county & one of the most economically
disadvantaged schooi systems in the Commonwealth. According to the 2012 censlls, over 26Vo of
parents have not completed high school
& only l2Vo of adults have been
educatecl beyond high
school. As the third poorest county in VA., needs are profound & resonlces are critically limited
due the county's isolation
& tax base, Need for support to families with levels of Edurcation;
227o of the county's adults have less than a ninth grade education and another 14.4Vo have
between a ninth and twelfth grade edr-rcation without a diploma. Families have stated that they
4
would like to pursue their G.E.D., but they need childcare for their infänts and toddlers. There
are currently no public center-based programs available in onr county.
Other child care providers are limited in the service area. One private religious exempt
child care center is located in Weber City. They have
olc1s.
All of these children
12
infants,
16
toddlers, and20 two year
are served in 3 classrooms. They maintain the ratio
of 1 to 4 up r.rntil
the age of2, Also, this childcare serves preschool and school age children. They have reached
their building capacity, and are unable to partner w/EHS at this time. They have partnered with
SCPSS to accommodate their school age sLlmmer program. The staff does not have any formal
credentials or certifications. The classrooms have limitecl materials and equipment. No child
care providers exist in Duffield except for Head Start.
According to the community needs assessment, the Non-Partnership EHS Expansion
model best meets the needs of the community. Staff have been in direct contact and held
meetings with the following: DSS staff, Infant Toddler Connection of DILENOWISCO staff,
Religious Exempt Child care Director, Family Preservation, SC Health Department, Frontier
Health, Child Care Awareness, and Appalachian Commr.rnity Action Agency.
Quality childcare is almost non-existent in Scott County. SCPSHSP operates 7 centers
that are licensed through the DSS. One religious exempt childcare is running at full capacity. The
Director of this program stated that low income working families can't afford to pay the cost of
child care and there are limited funds through the DSS. Due to the lack of qr.rality childcare in the
service area, this opportunity will grow the supply of effective early learning opportunities for
yollng children in the community. Expanding the program to serve 20 infants and toddlers will
give families an opportunity to quality childcare ancl respond to the child care needs of working
families.
5
In response to the socioeconomic status of the children and families of Scott County, and
the lack of child care progtams in this area, the neecl and demand of the community to
overwhelming and additional child care for infants and toddlers is critical. SCPSEHSP will meet
the requirements for full-day, full-year services by providing 8 hor-rrs per day, 5 days per week
and 41 weeks per year
for
a
total of 1,640 hours per year.
Enrollment Plan
SCPSEHSP projectecl date to begin delivering services is March 1,2017.
The following is a projected timeline:

While it is projected that this EHS will be fully operational in March, 2017, the program will
begin serving enrolled children in a home-based option the third week of February.
The SCPSEHSP will develop a recruitment strategy and selection criteria ensuring
services
will
be provided to those in greatest need. The SCPSEHSP recognizes that recruitment
is an ongoing process requiring year-round attention from staff, policy council, parent
committees as well as community partners.
In an effort to locate age and income eligible infant and toddlers in the service area, a
recruitment flyer will be placed in the program's newsletter bi-monthly. A list of siblings will be
generated from currently enrolled children which are age eligible for the Early Head Start
program. SCPSEHSP
will advertise in the local paper, cable TV, and radio, that the program
accepts and provides services to infant and toddlers, including those with disabilities.
Recruitment signs will be placed throughout the county.
In an effort to recruit homeless families, the EHS will work with local agencies inch"rding
Hope House Domestic Violence Shelter, Scott County DSS, Appalachian Community Action
Agency and SCPSS Homeless Liaison to determine if they are serving homeless families with
Early Head Start age eligible children. Recruitment flyers will be posted at all four agency sites
and other business throughout the county.
To recruit foster children, the EHS will communicate with the Scott County DSS to
determine
if
age eligible children are currently in foster care. The SCPSEHSP
will collaborate
with Early Intervention in Child Find Efforts. In addition, the program will participate in an
Early Childhood Fair at a local well frequented grocery store. Staff works to identify children
eligible for Early Head Start and special education services,
7
In an effort to recruit migrant and Non-English speaking families, the FCSC will contact
the Clinch River Migrant Health Netwolk and SCPSS to obtain assistance in recmiting families.
Management staff conducts community outreach by participating in community meetings ancl
other agency's service training. Staff
will conduct door to cloor recruitment.
The SCPSEHSP will work to ensure that not less than l0 percent of the acttral enrollment
will
be children with disabilities. The SCPSHSP has an interag-ency agreement with the Infant
Toddler Connection of DILENOWISCO, SCPSEHSP will conduct recruitment and identification
efforts of children in close coliaboration with its IDEA (Inclivicluals with Disabilities Education
Act) partners. The Director of SCPSHSP is
¿rn
active member of the Infant Toddler Connection
of DILENOWISCO Interagency Cor-rncil,
Project Design and Approach
The SCPSEHSP will be designecl to meet each child's individual needs, A variety of
the SCPSEHSP will work to
is by hiring ancl retaining highly qualified
will
be reqr-rired to have a Bachelor's Degree in Early
Lead Carêgivers will be reqr"tiled to have at least an A,A
Childhood Develop ment or a C,D.A. in Infant/Toddler. The Infant/Toddler
Assistant Teachers will be required to have an A,A, Degree in Early Childhoocl Development or
C,D.A, in lnfant/Toddler. The staff will be sensitive and skilled in interactions; use ongoing
formative assessment of each child's skills to plan instrr.rction; and they choose and nse cnrricula
and activities that engage all chilclren, regardless of their strengths or neecls, Upon hiring nine
EHS staff, the Start-Up training buclget will provide comprehensive curriculum training in the
High/Scope Infant-Toddler Curriculum. Using the High/Scope Approach, the pr-ogram will
provide a safe and healthy environment for infants and tocldlers that is clevelopmentally
8
appropriate, based on sound principles of learning, and addresses all areas of infant-toddler
development.
How Program will meet the Health, Mental Health, Nutritional, and Oral Health Needs of
Children
The quality of health statrls of currently enrolled infant and toddlers will be the top
priorities of the SCPSEHSP. In order to ensure that each child is school ready, it is critical that
timely and effective health services are provided and followed up on. The program in partnership
with the partners and families and through the strong collaboration with community agencies
provides comprehensive health services to the children.
In order to assess ancl meet individual needs, staff will determine if the child has an
ongoing access to health services and obtain documentation of an age appropriate health
assessment upon enrollment or
within 30 clays of child's first clay of attendance. As part of the
enrollment process, parents are asked to identify the child's health care provider(s) and to give
written consent to enable the Head Start program to establish communication with the providers.
Once the program receives record of a child's physical,
it is stamped with the date
received. If a family does not have a medical/dental provider, staff
will support families in
obtaining a preschool physical for their child within 30 days of entering the enrollment ancl
establishing a medical and dental home for the child within 90 days of entering the program. For
children who are not up to date on an age-appropriate schedule of well child care, the program
will work to assist
parents in making the necessary arrangements to bring the child up to date.
For children who are up-to-date on an age-appropriate schedr-rle of well child care, the program
works to assist parents to make sure the child continues with the current well child care.
Early childhood mental health is a child's (birth to 5 years) growing ability to experience,
regulate, and express emotions. They learn to develop close, secLlre relationships with peers and
9
caring adults. Children begin to explore and learn from their surroundings, pay attention, and
follow directions. The Scott
Cor"rnty Public School Head Start (SCPSHS) program programs
contracts with Frontier Health, Inc,, a provider of behavioral health services, to serve the
program an average of 20 hours per week to enslrre children, families, and staff have access to
prevention and intervention services. With parent/ guardian permission, individr-ral child
observations are conducted by a mental health professional when there are concerns, In adclition,
this contracted servìce r,vill assist program staff and parents in writing and implementing
intervention plans, facilitate the program's mental health education services and serve as a
resource to parents and staff about ment¿il health issnes.
The SCPSHS program contracts with the VA Departrnent of Health - LENOWISCO
Health District to provide the following nutritional services: Review the analysis of the Head

'When
children have a healthy mouth, they can
speak more clearly, eat healthy foods, and feel good about themselves,
A healthy mouth also
means children can better focus and learn, have a pain-free mouth, and incur fewer dental costs
To assist in ensuring that the enrolled children have good oral health, the SCpSHS program
offers each Head Start family an opportunity to receive clental services thror,tgh a partnership
with
a
local dentist or through Virginia Smiles. All child,ren who receive a dental examination
10
also receive a fluoride varnish treatment. SCPSHSP staff assists parents with referrals for
restorations and follow-up treatment if recommended as a result of the dental assessment.
The SCPSHS program works with families to promote good oral health through dental
education materials which are sent to parents on a regular basis reinforcing the need for regular
dentist visits.Children ancl their farnilic-s ¿ìrc also ecluc¿rted about eft'ective dental hy-eicne
practices, including the ability to clean their teeth properlv b¿rsecl upon their cleveloprnentül
skills. The SCPSHS program assists parents with referrals to the public health dentist and dental
providers.
SCPSEHSP proposes to serve 12 children at the Weber City center and 8 todctlers at the
Duffield center. The Infant classroom staffing pattern will be an Infant Lead Caregiver and
Assistant Teacher that serve 4 infants.This staffing pattern
will
an
exceed the required ratio, but the
program feels like this would be "best practice". Weber City and Duffield Toddler classrooms
will
each have a staffing pattern of a Toddler Lead Caregiver and an Assistant Teacher that serve
8 toddlers.
SCPSEHSP
will implement
priority, All EHS staff will receive
a.

First Aid course and an Infant/Child CPR course offered by
the American Red Cross. All EHS center staff will be MAT certifiecl. All employees must
satisfactorily pass a criminal record check through the Virginia State Police before hire. No
person shall be employed until SCPSEHS receives a Criminal Record check that is clear of any
criminal activity or felony record. SCPSEHS will be required by the Office of Head Start or

Health Department plior to opening the classrooms, Prior to start up, the Director',vill review
DSS Licensing Stanclards ancl meet with DSS licensing inspection to gain understanding of the
requirements for Infant/Toddler care. During Start Up, EHS
will participate in Licensed Child
Day Centers Standards training and Child Abr"rse and Neglect training provided by the DSS of
Va. SCPSEHSP will submit an initial application licensure for Webel City and Duffield Early
Head Start centers. The program will prepare for the facility inspection.
The High/Scope Infants and Toddlers Cr"rrriculum is research based and child focused. It
Llses a designed process
of learning through cliscovery, called active participatory learning.
During learning, caregivers encoLlrage infants ancl toddlers to discover the world around them by
exploring and playing. Learning and development are anchored by long-term, trusting
relationships with caregivers, who are close at hand to sltpport children as they plan.
Using the High Scope Curriculum, SCPSEHSP witl not only help young children excel in
language, literacy and cognitive learning but also promotes independence, self-help, social
emotional skills, physical development and health, decision-making, cooperation, empathy,
creativity, and problem solving

Developmentally appropriate for infants and toddlers
SCPSEHS
will provide
a safe and healthy environment, be accessible to those
with
disabilities, ancl that is conclucive to leaming ancl reflective of the different stages of
development of each child. Developmentally Appropriate practices are the keys to any high
t2
quality childcare setting. High/Scope approach is designed to promote young children's optimal
learning and development. Knowing what is typical at each age and stage of early development
is crucial. Infant-Toddler Key Developmental Indicators (KDIs) helps teachers decide which
experiences are best for children's learning and development. What teachers learn about specific
children helps them teach and care for each chilcl as an individual. COR Advantage trained
teachers learn how to observe children's play and ìnteractions
with their physical environment
and others. Teachers learn about each child's interests, abilities, and developmental progress.
The program will make every effort to know the children's families and learn abor-rt the values,
expectations, and factors that shape their lives at home and in their communities.
Aligned with the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework
High/Scope Infants and Toddlers Curriculum address all areas of infant-toddler
development. Six main curricnlum content areas align with the Head Start Early Learning
Outcomes Framework. The curriculurm is informed by research as being reasonably achievable,
age appropriate, and aligned
with kindergarten expectations, It covers the domains of early
learning and skills children need to succeed in school. The High/Scope approach is relevant for
children from diverse, linguistic, economic, and cultural backgror.rnds and for children with
disabilities. It has a reasonable number of domains, sub-domains, and key developmental
indicators that trained teachers can easily implement. To meet school reacliness goals, assessing
children's outcomes and gathering and analyzing data for improving quality, SCPSEHSP will
utilize the COR Advantage child assessment system. COR Advantage is a birth-to-kindergarten
assessment that assists teachers
in supporting children at every developmental level
-
inclucling
chilclren who are English Language Learners and those with special needs. This assessment tool
is used to track each child's progress
utilizing a developmental checklist of indicators which
13
are
also aligned with the domains of the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework. During
three observation periocls, center staff r,vill inpr.rt data into the system. The information
will
be
gathered from ongoing assessments from teacher observations, parent observations, one-on-one
assessment, grolrp projects,
work sampling, and anecdotal notes, Information from the COR
Advantage will be usecl to provide individr-ral profiles, class protiles, and total program reports.
